Hi I just recently lost the nose wheel on my raf when in a low speed taxi the wheel started to shimmy violently. I was using a very hard 3/4 inch shaft that snapped just above the securing nut. Would it be better to use a softer shaft that would bend rather than something hard that could break? I'm still amazed that this 3/4 inch shaft would snap. Any suggestions on what material I might use for my new nose wheel shaft? Thanks Roy
